Trump and the Republican Party's authoritarian overreach keeps backfiring on them. Their desperate attempts to cling to power are only reducing their chances of keeping power in 2026 and beyond.

Extremism has become the Republican mainstream, and they are now purging anyone reasonable from their ranks. LP Senior Advisor Stuart Stevens examines this on MSNBC:

These are the hardest for me. I'm going with Hendrix & Lennon today. What about you? 🎶🤘🎶

A real president does this. Thank you to every veteran who’s worn the uniform and carried the weight for the rest of us — just respect 🇺🇸

On this Veteran’s Day, we shine a vital spotlight on treatment resistant PTSD and related conditions. Special thanks to @governor.ca.gov and those seeking to accelerate the safe and appropriate use of psychedelics as a modality to help those with treatment resistant conditions. @msnbc.com

Since today is Veterans Day, here’s a piece I wrote ten years ago about the history of the holiday we now mark every Nov. 11. I was fortunate to write several articles for We’re History, one of @hcrichardson.bsky.social’s great public projects. Go to werehistory.org to read lots of great articles.

EXCLUSIVE: Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie plan to hold another major press conference with Epstein survivors early next week at the U.S. Capitol

So many things get me about the roll over, show belly capitulation from the Senate. And one of them is that the promise of a future vote in the Senate isn't even the promise (ha!) of future *passage* of an ACA bill because House would have to deliver same promise.

During a town hall, U.S. Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks' (R-IA) constituents booed and called her a "liar" after she falsely claimed major cuts to Medicaid "strengthen and preserve" the program.

Wow!! A real President acting Presidential. My Dad who died in 2020 was a WWII Veteran & on an Honor flight at 92yrs to DC from Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 2015. He said it was one of the happiest days of his life and loved Obama! How awesome 😎 he honored veterans in this way today.

In an unforgettable Veterans Day moment, former President Barack Obama surprised dozens of Korean and Vietnam War veterans as their Honor Flight landed in Washington, D.C. The veterans, fresh off their flight from Madison, Wisconsin, were greeted by President Obama himself.

Instead of funneling endless amounts of money into our bloated Pentagon budget while thousands of veterans face homelessness and hunger, let’s use those funds to truly take care of our veterans — ensuring every one has a home, food, and access to medical and mental health care.

Throughout America’s history, whenever our nation asked, our best & bravest have answered the call. American veterans put on the uniform to protect our way of life, & defend liberty & democracy. My gratitude is with every veteran & their families on this day of remembrance.

Thank you, Senators. This is why you’ll continue to have the support of the people. @warnock.senate.gov @ossoff.senate.gov

Thank you @genzforchange.org and @votersoftomorrow.org , who both do incredible work to engage young people in politics and civics. I’m beyond honored to have their support!

Imagine choosing Bari Weiss for anything when Versha Sharma exists? While Bari cries about concocted "cancellation" and promoted beyond her capabilities, folks who are actually speaking the truth and nothing but AND generate profits are forced into silence.

It is not only a duty to tell the truth, it can be an act of righteous rebellion.

Really wish I had gotten a better shot of this but holding a phone that says “who else was just ‘following orders’?” up to a riot cop is hard as hell

"Bedtime? What's the point of bedtime?" My child...when he was a TODDLER. If you have to ask, you desperately need external boundaries set for you.

“I’ve been hearing that standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She also asked openly, ‘What’s the point of standards?’” one CBS source said. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Good COP or bad COP? I discussed the #COP30 climate summit in Brazil, what we need out of it, and what we can expect, with the great @ianmastersmedia.bsky.social on #BackgroundBriefing. Watch this space! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...

ICE drive by shooting pepper spray into a car with children. No mercy. All cruelty. This is right-wing Christian Nationalism.

ICE sprays large canister of pepper spray directly into family car—hitting 1 year old baby. "They were simply shopping at Sam's Club," said man who took video. "ICE agents drove by and sprayed pepper spray directly inside—where their baby and 16 year old sister sat." Cicero, Illinois

"I am tired of losing and worse, I am tired of expecting to lose. We need Democrats who will use their positions of power not to constantly capitulate, compromise, and cave, but to fight-- not to say the word ‘fight’ because it’s the popular thing to do, but to actually do it and mean it."

The best way to honor veterans is to lobby your politicians into supporting universal healthcare and universal college tuition so disadvantaged Americans aren't coerced to risk their lives for the Military Industrial Complex or Big Oil #VeteransDay

House Republicans complaining about showing up for work after 3 months off.

So now, treasonous traitors and alleged insurrectionists can sue for rightfully being investigated by the FBI for being a traitor to their country. And a handful of democrats voted for this to be ok. Smh.

Elon could become the world's first trillionaire. But we can stop him. Join us this Saturday at Tesla showrooms and superchargers everywhere to say #NoTrillionaires ✊ #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall actionnetwork.org/event_campai...

"Patients are increasingly experiencing what’s known as administrative harm – those unintended but very real consequences arising from administrative decisions, made far upstream, that directly influence how doctors practice." #Medsky

Trump’s Economy lost an estimated 50,000 private sector jobs in October. But he continues to insist everything is booming.

Countless counterfeit fallacy: An increasing number of anecdotes doesn’t strengthen the quality of evidence. Many people can be wrong.

While the Senate Dem shutdown deal backlash is real, Dems are still leaving this fight in a better place than when they entered it Fundamentals haven’t changed: Trump is weak, the GOP is toxic, the affordability crisis is their fault, and they will own the outcome if ACA subsidies aren't renewed.

This Veterans Day, I’m thinking of the millions of Americans who have served in uniform — and how our government is failing them right now. Words aren’t enough, we need actions. Fund the VA. Fund mental healthcare. And end endless wars.

practice, but this is an admin like no other. They are at war with the press - not seeking to inform the public with facts or truth.Their statements never address the substance of the story. Time to reexamine why media keeps including insults and propaganda in stories.

I consume a massive amount of political news. And in every story the reporter contacts the specific Trump admin spokesperson for comment and the response is always a venomous personal insult followed by praise for Trump or a cabinet official. I realize that has always been standard journalistic

“I’m 94, and I told my doctor I hope I live to see him in jail.” Quote of the day.

I want some fucking answers about how eight Senate Democrats agreed to put our money in the pockets of coup-plotting Senate Republicans.

“Bovino and his officers are expected to head to Charlotte, North Carolina, then continue to New Orleans, according to two of the officials, who stressed plans are still being finalized. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is expected to continue operations in Chicago.”
